About the Y

The Y is a diverse organization of men, women and children joined together by a shared commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living and fostering a sense of social responsibility. Our membership is 21 million strong, and spread across more than 2,600 Y associations nationwide. Since no two communities are exactly alike, no two Ys are exactly alike. We bring men, women and children – just like you together – and our shared commitment to our communities ensures the opportunities to learn, grow and thrive that we create for all are ones that endure.

YMCA Core Values: Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility.

YMCA Mission: To put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.
